Chapter 573: Gongming Becomes an Emperor, God King's Invitation (Guaranteed 4K extra update 13)

Deep within the temple, the dark brown crystals were long gone. On the dust-sealed throne, a figure in rugged armor sat there, like a rock that had remained unchanged since time immemorial, holding a giant black sword in the palm of his hand, bowing his head and staring at the steps before the throne.

When Ying Xiaoxiao followed her grandmother, besides them, there were many clan elders here.

Those secret old men in the clan, some sleeping, some usually hidden in the dark, had all arrived here at this moment.

They knelt before the throne, their expressions pious and excited, waiting for the ancestor of their clan to speak.

With just one order, they would set off immediately to conquer the Myriad Heavens.

They had waited for this day of revenge for too, too long.

As the Goddess, Ying Xiaoxiao recognized these clan elders and saw that although they had all come, there were still many familiar figures of clan elders who had already disappeared.

A trace of sorrow appeared in the depths of her eyes, but immediately after, she saw the towering figure sitting on the throne. The aura that was restrained like a volcanic eruption yet faintly radiated made people feel awe. Even though she had become a Sage now, she still felt a palpitation originating from her bloodline.

Her grandmother pulled her, walked through the central aisle, and arrived at the steps before the throne. Her grandmother knelt down and respectfully lowered her head, saying:

"Unworthy descendant, pays respects to our ancestor."

The temple was silent. After a moment, the towering God King seemed to have returned from his long memories of the years. He slowly raised his head and looked at the many prostrate figures in the temple, the vast majority of whom were Half-Sages.

These were all his bloodline descendants.

"Have things been handled properly?"

He spoke slowly, his voice low and majestic.

Ying Qingshuang said respectfully: "Everything has been handled. All clansmen have been summoned and are waiting for the ancestor's order at any time. The major forces our clan has carefully managed over these years have infiltrated seventeen Small Worlds. There are 83 Divine Dynasties, and the controllers behind them are all people of our clan. With just one order, we can start a rebellion at any time!"

"Good."

The God King nodded, a trace of cold, sharp light appearing in his majestic, candle-like eyes. He looked at the Goddess kneeling in front of the crowd and said:

"That Haotian Sage you mentioned before, I didn't expect him to have such a performance at the Dao discussion conference. He is worth wooing. If he can give the Seeing Yuanzu a fatal blow at a critical moment, that would be a great merit!"

Ying Xiaoxiao was slightly startled. She raised her head, looked at the ancestor's majestic eyes, and quickly lowered her head again.

This time, the ancestor agreed to her previous invitation, but she didn't feel the joy she had before; instead, she became worried.

Because Li Hao had already killed the Void Ancestor, the Green Lamp Buddha, and other Sages involved in the events of that year, and they were also Li Hao's enemies. Now, inviting Li Hao again had no reason.

Moreover, launching a sneak attack on the Seeing Yuanzu—one could imagine how dangerous such a thing was. That was not just a Supreme Sage, but the most ancient Sage. The ancestor himself had suffered a great loss at his hands back then and had been sealed until now before breaking free.

Her eyes were complex. Back at the tea stall, when she first met that youth, the conversation was still vivid in her mind.

"My name is Ying Xiaoxiao, 'Ying' from 'Ying Yun Er Sheng' (born to meet the occasion), 'Xiaoxiao' from 'Xiaosa' (carefree). How should I address you?"

"You can call me Haotian."

"Then what is your surname?"

"I have no surname."

She was very curious; how could someone have no surname?

Just like when she was born, her grandmother told her: "You must remember, your surname is Ying, 'Ying' from 'Ying Yun Er Sheng'. Bearing this surname is the proudest thing in the Myriad Heavens."

When she learned about the youth's past out of curiosity, she realized how difficult his journey had been. How many scars were hidden under that carefree, playboy-like smiling face?

Now, after experiencing tribulations, he had finally become a Sage, yet he was to be made to assassinate the Seeing Yuanzu. If this adventure failed, he would surely die and his Dao would vanish.

"Reporting to the ancestor, the Seeing Yuanzu is cunning and suspicious by nature. When fighting the ancestor, I'm afraid he may not give people a chance. If we are to woo him, it would be better to let him deal with those other Three Calamities Sages involved. Our clan is short of manpower, and these Three Calamities Sages will also cause us great harm at that time."

Ying Xiaoxiao lowered her head and said.

She did not want to see Li Hao take a desperate gamble with his life, but at the same time, she hoped that the other party could help the God Race and assist the ancestor.

From what she had seen and heard since she was a child, she knew the injustice the God Race had suffered over these long years. They were clearly a noble God Race, yet they lived like rats in a sewer.

"As a Goddess, don't you understand? The most important thing in this war is the duel between the two leaders, that is, me and the Seeing Yuanzu. As long as the Seeing Yuanzu dies, the remaining Three Calamities Sages are nothing to worry about. Those who are unwilling to submit can be wiped out by me with a wave of my hand!"

The God King's eyes were indifferent, saying: "If he can cause damage to the Seeing Yuanzu, it is better than killing ten or a hundred Three Calamities Sages."

Ying Xiaoxiao naturally understood this logic, but she had two concerns. The first was the risk of assassination, and the second was that although those Three Calamities Sages could not threaten the ancestor, they were enough to threaten the clansmen.

After all, the God Race had been hiding and dodging for these years. Except for her and her grandmother, there were only five Sages in the clan.

Compared to the Myriad Heavens, this was still too few. When the great war broke out and the ancestor fought the Seeing Yuanzu, the remaining Three Calamities Sages would need them to resist, and there would surely be heavy casualties.

If Li Hao could help her block the other Three Calamities Sages, it would greatly reduce the casualties of the clansmen.

Previously, to resurrect the ancestor, many clan elders had already fallen. Now, she feared even more would wither away.

"That person is already the strongest existence under the Supreme Sage and will surely be wooed by the Seeing Yuanzu. We should take the first step. This is a rare opportunity. Let him pretend to be wooed by the Seeing Yuanzu and then wait for an opportunity to act."

The God King said coldly. When he learned about the situation at the Dao discussion conference, this idea sprouted in his heart, and he felt it was a good opportunity. If it failed, it didn't matter; the loss to him could be ignored.

Ying Xiaoxiao bit her lip slightly and said: "What if he is unwilling to agree? What if the Seeing Yuanzu gives him more benefits..."

A look of contemplation appeared in the God King's eyes. He then glanced at her, his eyes flickering slightly, and said:

"You said he also cultivates the Extreme Dao. Since that's the case, tell him, using your Dao heart as a guarantee, that all the Extreme Dao power from this war will be gifted to him. The more casualties in this war, the greater his benefits!"

"He even has the hope of taking this opportunity to step into the Extreme Dao God Realm in one go, comparable to my level."

"At the same time..."

He looked at Ying Xiaoxiao and said: "You seem to have feelings for him. I can also make the decision to betroth you to him. Although you are all Sages and no longer care about physical pleasure, Sages also have companions. If he has feelings for you, he should agree."

"Moreover, after the matter is accomplished, my God Race will rule the Myriad Heavens, and he will be independent of the God Race. I will bestow upon him three Small Worlds, all under his control, and the incense will all be controlled by him. In this way, he will also have the hope of cultivating to the God Realm through incense in the future. If his own aptitude is sufficient, challenging that legendary Three Sages God Realm Integration is not impossible."

His words were extremely tempting. Ying Xiaoxiao was stunned after hearing them, not expecting the ancestor to be so generous.

For cultivation, this was indeed a huge benefit.

Just the bestowal of Extreme Dao power to reach the God Realm was a great thing.

"Go and do it."

The God King said, seeing Ying Xiaoxiao with her head lowered, and ordered coldly.

Ying Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth slightly, remained silent for a long time, and finally agreed, stood up, and took her leave.

Small Thousand World, Stealing Heaven Holy Land.

In the small courtyard, Li Hao took out various heaven and earth treasures and fed them to 'Gongming'.

These heaven and earth treasures were of many kinds. Some were rare divine fruits, some were source crystals condensed from some Dao rhyme in the void, and others were Mysterious Heavy Divine Water. All contained the Great Dao and tribulation power, which could make the Dao power and tribulation power within the Dao Tribulation Imperial Weapon more abundant until it transformed.

In addition, the two Divine Water Dao Fish that Li Hao fished in the Heavenly River were also heaven and earth treasures.

As Li Hao fed these treasures to 'Gongming' one by one, 'Gongming' absorbed these treasures, and a rich aura of Dao rhyme gradually appeared on the pitch-black sword body.

This sword was originally the Dao Palace of the Qian Dao Palace and was itself a fragment. Now it had been refined into a sword, but one could still see the traces of the eaves on the sword body.

As the heaven and earth treasures were continuously absorbed, when ten pieces were absorbed, a Dao rhyme spiritual soul was faintly born within the sword body, and a streak of spiritual consciousness was linked with Li Hao's consciousness.

That spiritual consciousness carried a joyful and newborn aura, was very active, and transmitted a feeling of closeness to Li Hao.

As the feeding of heaven and earth treasures continued, when twenty pieces were absorbed, this spiritual consciousness became increasingly strong, containing terrifying majesty.

Moreover, the sword body also revealed divine light of thunder tribulation, emitting a terrifying aura, forming a sword domain around Li Hao.

This was the weapon's own Dao Domain!

Extremely sharp and terrifying, it was actually not inferior in the slightest to the Dao Domain of an ordinary Sage, containing ancient tribulation power within.

Li Hao felt that this fragmented weapon was gradually recovering and healing, gradually becoming complete.

He did not stop and continued to feed it. When thirty heaven and earth treasures were fed, the sword body hovered before Li Hao, electricity generated in the void. Just the sword light naturally emitted and leaked out tore through the void, and streaks of tribulation power coiled around, full of destructive aura.

At the same time, above the small courtyard, thunder rumbled.

The originally clear sky turned into haze in an instant, and heavy clouds like steaming black smoke gathered above the holy land.

Thunder and fire flashed within, and bursts of oppressive and destructive aura were emitted.

"What happened?"

"Who is crossing the tribulation?"

"This, this seems to be a Sage Heavenly Tribulation?!"

Many disciples practicing on the Shengshan were alarmed, and some were horrified.

They had seen the Stealing Sage cross the Heavenly Tribulation before, relying on his stealing techniques to steal a trace of the Heavenly Tribulation, using the Heavenly Tribulation to break the Heavenly Tribulation, and crossing his own Three Calamities.

Now, this scene seemed familiar.

"Hmm?"

Feng Feng Bo Ping, in his cave dwelling, saw the dark clouds gathering and was slightly startled, immediately realizing something. His divine sense swept over, and he immediately saw the source of the aura.

He understood in his heart, just as he had thought.

This tribulation was not triggered by Li Hao himself; after all, Li Hao had not yet crossed the Earth Tribulation and could not jump directly to the Heavenly Tribulation.

And Li Hao had destroyed the Buddhist sect and the Void Holy Land, naturally looting many benefits, enough to repair that broken Dao Tribulation Imperial Weapon into shape.

At this moment, in the small courtyard, Li Hao sat there, looking at the thundering thunder above his head, feeling that 'Gongming' hovering before him was restless.

Suddenly, with a 'Ceng—', the joyful spiritual consciousness in 'Gongming' let out a sword hum like a long roar, suddenly roaring out, tearing through the void, rushing out of the small courtyard, and charging toward the sky.

It was born of heaven and earth, and when it was nurtured into shape, it would also experience the tribulation and test of heaven and earth.

Beneath those dark clouds, the pitch-black 'Gongming' erupted with brilliant silver light, flying rapidly, and then suddenly killed its way into the cloud layer.

Rumble!

Within the cloud layer, the thunder became more intense, as if in fury.

And the sword shadow of several thousand feet flashed from the cloud layer from time to time, or when the thunder shook and flashed, it also illuminated that huge sword mark!

That sword shadow in the cloud layer was constantly slashed by thunder, and the thunder light was like a twisted spirit snake, fighting with the sword shadow. Accompanying each impact, violent tremors sounded, making people feel terrified.

Li Hao loosened his crossed legs, sat under the eaves, and quietly gazed at the cloud layer. He could feel 'Gongming's' spiritual consciousness, which was unusually joyful, without fear, but instead filled with a fearless momentum.

Following the resounding of thunder, after a long time, the cloud layer was suddenly torn apart, and a sword light illuminated heaven and earth, as if it wanted to split the entire Shengshan.

The cloud layer was severed, and a huge sword slowly descended from the middle, like an emperor ruling the world.

It was clearly a sword, but when it slowly descended, it seemed to be the only light in the world, extremely eye-catching.

"Whose sword is that?"

"That seems to be a divine weapon crossing the tribulation."

"I heard from friends in the Weapon Ancestor Holy Land that refining a divine weapon will invite tribulation, and divine weapons of different levels invite different thunder and fire tribulations. I don't know whose divine weapon this is."

"With such momentum, the thunder has rung more than nine times. I'm afraid it's a Dao Tribulation Imperial Weapon!"

Many disciples on the Shengshan felt great majesty from that sword, like an emperor descending, looking down on the human world.

They had a feeling of wanting to prostrate and worship. All things have spirits, but when a weapon reaches the level of a Dao Tribulation Imperial Weapon, it is no less than a Sage's personal arrival.

Up and down the Shengshan, many swords were trembling, and some swords with sword souls even broke free from their owners' waists along with their scabbards, sticking into the ground and trembling.

Although the Stealing Heaven Holy Land was not dominated by swordsmen, what they learned was mixed, and the weapons used by the disciples also included swords. After all, disguising oneself as a carefree swordsman was easier to steal, lowering others' guard.

If one dressed shabbily, even if someone lost something nearby and it wasn't you who stole it, they would still suspect you.

Therefore, many disciples in the Stealing Heaven Holy Land mostly looked like upright gentlemen from the outside.

Just like the many disciples of the Da Huang Tian Holy Land, they were all like humble gentlemen, and the women were gentle and beautiful, with a graceful temperament, which would never make people associate them with the fact that they were full of lies as soon as they opened their mouths.

As 'Gongming' split the thunder tribulation and descended, ten thousand swords on the Shengshan bowed, and the commotion was huge.

Li Hao did not want to cause too much of a stir and summoned 'Gongming' back.

Seeing 'Gongming' flash slightly, it flew back into the small courtyard. The ten-plus-foot sword body shrank to the size of an ordinary long sword, still pitch-black all over, but covered with flowing light and tribulation fire. Just by naturally hovering in mid-air, it cut the void into faint cracks.

Like fallen leaves rippling in water, ripples couldn't stop appearing around it.

Li Hao sighed in his heart; this sword seemed even sharper.

He gripped the hilt, immediately feeling a burst of joyful emotion coming from it.

"They all say fame is good. All living beings in the world have names from birth. The surname is the root, and the name is the life. What one seeks in a lifetime is nothing more than fame, and the Sages are no exception..."

Li Hao muttered to himself. Letting one's name be known by the world seemed to be the instinctive demand of all life.

"Gongming, Gongming... if one can cut off fame, it is enough to be called the sharpest in the world."

Li Hao said softly.

The sword in his hand seemed to listen to his whisper, vibrating slightly in response, emitting a joyful and firm spiritual consciousness.

Li Hao smiled knowingly. As a swordsman, he naturally loved the sword in his hand. He picked up 'Gongming' and slashed it across the back of his hand.

But he found that the muscles on the back of his hand were extremely tough, and he needed to use eighty percent of his strength to cut the back of his hand.

His body now was comparable to a Dao Tribulation Imperial Weapon, which meant that 'Gongming' could also cut other Dao Tribulation Imperial Weapons.

"Truly sharp, but you should not be full yet..."

Li Hao smiled, picked up 'Gongming', and continued to feed the remaining heaven and earth treasures to it.

As ten more heaven and earth treasures were absorbed, the Dao rhyme and light on 'Gongming' became increasingly brilliant, and the tribulation power became increasingly strong.

Li Hao fed ten more, and thunder sounds appeared in the sky again.

The many disciples who had been discussing and guessing where the sword belonged were all alarmed by this sudden second thunder, and couldn't help but be stunned.

Li Hao felt the trembling of 'Gongming' in his hand, as well as the majestic fighting intent, and couldn't help but be startled, not expecting it to trigger a heavenly tribulation again.

He loosened his palm and did not help. He could feel that 'Gongming' did not want him to interfere in its own tribulation.

Just as he loosened his hand, 'Gongming' turned into a pitch-black light and broke directly into the cloud layer.

Soon, the thunder sounded again within the cloud layer.

"You kid, it seems your looting of the Buddhist sect and the Void Holy Land had a great harvest, actually letting a Dao Tribulation Imperial Weapon reach the First Tribulation!"

At this time, Feng Feng Bo Ping didn't know when he had arrived in Li Hao's courtyard, looked up at the firmament, and sighed to Li Hao.

Li Hao turned his head and asked curiously: "Could it be that if it absorbs enough, it can reach the Second Tribulation and Third Tribulation?"

"That's right."

Feng Feng Bo Ping nodded and said: "A Dao Tribulation Imperial Weapon is enough to hurt a Sage and is also comparable to a Sage's destructive power. If it experiences another tribulation, Three Calamities Sages must treat it carefully. If it reaches the Second or Third Tribulation, killing Three Calamities Sages is as easy as turning over one's hand. Even if an ordinary Sage holds such a sharp weapon, we can only flee at the sight of it."

Li Hao was somewhat stunned, not expecting Old Man Feng to exaggerate so much, but he knew Old Man Feng wouldn't deliberately exaggerate.

Just now, when 'Gongming' crossed the thunder tribulation and finished repairing, the sharpness it revealed made Li Hao feel that it could kill a newly ascended Sage by itself.

It was too sharp and contained destructive tribulation power, which could also directly damage the Sage Dao, so Sages could only avoid it.

"Do you know that the Seeing Yuanzu is feared by the Myriad Heavens? Besides being the most ancient Sage and having accumulated a terrifying amount of incense power, another reason is that he holds a Seventh Tribulation Dao Tribulation Imperial Weapon!"

Feng Feng Bo Ping withdrew his gaze from the firmament and said solemnly to Li Hao.

Li Hao was stunned. A Seventh Tribulation Dao Tribulation Imperial Weapon?

"So, he fed at least 140 heaven and earth treasures to the Imperial Weapon?"

Li Hao asked in surprise.

Feng Feng Bo Ping couldn't help but laugh and said: "More than that. Mere 140 heaven and earth treasures can be taken out by ordinary Supreme Sages, let alone him. The feeding of this Dao Tribulation Imperial Weapon doubles each time. It takes about 20 pieces for the first time to reach the First Tribulation. If you want it to cross the tribulation again, it's 40 pieces, and then 80 pieces!"

"In other words, to reach a Seventh Tribulation Imperial Weapon, it has absorbed at least a thousand heaven and earth treasures."

Li Hao was somewhat stunned. Heaven and earth treasures were extremely precious. A holy land taking out three or five pieces was already a heavy loss. A thousand heaven and earth treasures—what kind of concept was this?

Even if all the holy lands in the Myriad Heavens were looted, they might not be able to gather them!

And the Seeing Yuanzu had spent so many heaven and earth treasures to forge a Seventh Tribulation Imperial Weapon!

"Just the Second or Third Tribulation makes Three Calamities Sages avoid its sharpness. Then the Seventh Tribulation—wouldn't killing a Supreme Sage be as easy as turning over one's hand?"

Li Hao was somewhat shocked and couldn't help but ask.

Feng Feng Bo Ping nodded and said: "Otherwise, why does the Seeing Yuanzu sit in the center at every conference?"

Li Hao was speechless.

"Although the Seeing Yuanzu is not the most monster-like in aptitude, he is definitely the most well-founded. After all, he has lived the longest and accumulated the most things, whether it's incense or Dao Tribulation Imperial Weapons!"

Feng Feng Bo Ping said. This was also a warning to Li Hao, to avoid Li Hao provoking the Seeing Yuanzu.

Although Li Hao was powerful enough for now, if the Seeing Yuanzu secretly harbored jealousy, Li Hao would likely suffer a great disaster.

But fortunately, he knew that the Seeing Yuanzu longed for the Immortal God path, and as the key to that ancient hall, the other party would definitely not easily move against Li Hao.

Once that ancient hall opened and the Immortal God path was opened, if the other party became an Immortal or God, then there would be no talk of jealousy. Even if Li Hao was more monster-like, there would be an insurmountable gap between him and an Immortal or God.

Li Hao felt somewhat heavy after hearing Feng Feng Bo Ping's words. He had cultivated until now, and his own power far exceeded that of a divine weapon, but he had also experienced the improvement brought by divine weapons in the human world, such as the Long Xiao Sword, which had helped him kill demons like cutting vegetables. If he didn't have this sword at that time, he would have suffered a great loss relying only on his own fists and feet.

"The Imperial Weapon was repaired earlier and crossed its formation tribulation. This is the First Tribulation. Do you have extra heaven and earth treasures to let it cross the Second Tribulation? If it can cross the Second Tribulation, this sword alone is enough to kill Three Calamities Sages!"

Feng Feng Bo Ping asked Li Hao.

Li Hao had looted 54 heaven and earth treasures earlier and thought the quantity was extremely large, but now it seemed to be stretched thin.

Now that 50 pieces had been absorbed, plus the heaven and earth treasures he had accumulated before, only seven or eight pieces remained.

"Did you dig up the Bodhi tree of the Buddhist sect? That thing is also equivalent to a heaven and earth treasure, and it has already cultivated into a Sage, having been nurtured by the Green Lamp Buddha for years. One piece is enough to equal ten."

Feng Feng Bo Ping asked, knowing quite well about the benefits of this Buddhist sect.

Li Hao knew as soon as he heard it that he had likely coveted this thing before but couldn't steal it. He thought of Xiyan absorbing that Bodhi tree and now being asleep, so he shook his head and said: "I pulled that tree out, but I have other uses for it."

Feng Feng Bo Ping felt a trace of regret upon hearing this but did not pursue what use it was for.

At this time, Li Hao thought of the Void Ancestor's thunder light Imperial Weapon, whose core was a dagger.

"Can I disperse the Imperial Weapon and feed it?"

Li Hao asked curiously.

Feng Feng Bo Ping immediately thought of the Void Ancestor's famous 'Extinguishing Tribulation Divine Dagger' and laughed: "I forgot about that. The Void Ancestor's Imperial Weapon is also in your hands. That is also a First Tribulation Imperial Weapon, just like the Green Lamp Buddha's green lamp. Speaking of which, you can also dismantle that green lamp. However, if you dismantle an Imperial Weapon to feed it, the effect will only be halved."

Li Hao felt some regret, but he had no use for the Void Ancestor's Imperial Weapon. To truly kill the enemy, only one sharp weapon was enough.

"Old Man Feng, do you lack weapons?"

Li Hao pondered for a moment and felt it was a pity to dismantle it. After all, the effect was halved, so it was better to give it to Old Man Feng for self-defense.

Feng Feng Bo Ping immediately knew Li Hao's intention and shook his head with a smile: "I have an Imperial Weapon killing weapon. Although it's not as good as that Extinguishing Tribulation Divine Dagger, it's handy to use."

While the two were talking, thunder rumbled above their heads. 'Gongming' fought with the heavenly tribulation in the tribulation cloud, setting off bursts of momentum, and streaks of heaven-shaking sword light penetrated heaven and earth, sweeping across tens of thousands of miles.

Such a scene made people tremble.

Not long after, 'Gongming's' tribulation crossing ended and it flew back into the small courtyard.

Li Hao immediately felt that the power on 'Gongming' was much thicker than before. He picked it up and gently cut the back of his hand, but it was easily cut open.

The Void Ancestor's weapon was also a First Tribulation, but Li Hao felt it seemed not as sharp as 'Gongming'.

"You can feed the Void Ancestor's weapon to it. If you add that green lamp, it can let it immediately cross the Second Tribulation. At that time, this weapon itself is enough to threaten Three Calamities Sages, or even kill them!"

Feng Feng Bo Ping said to Li Hao.

Li Hao said: "The Green Lamp Buddha burned the green lamp out, and that Imperial Weapon was destroyed. I guess he didn't want to make it cheap for me."

"That bald guy, he's really willing."

Feng Feng Bo Ping couldn't help but scold angrily upon hearing this.

Dao Tribulation Imperial Weapons were heaven and earth supreme treasures nurtured over countless years. Destroying one meant one less. And divine weapons forged by the human race itself, even the Weapon Sage, could not forge Dao Tribulation Imperial Weapons.

Other divine weapons could not absorb heaven and earth treasures to make them transform, and were not enough to bear this power.

Li Hao took out the Void Ancestor's Imperial Weapon. Thunder light floated on this short dagger, cutting the void.

Li Hao hesitated for a moment, but feeling the fighting intent and joyful spiritual consciousness coming from 'Gongming', he thought about it and still fed this item to it. If it could reach the Second Tribulation, 'Gongming' could also easily break other Dao Tribulation Imperial Weapons. If he encountered another ancient Three Calamities Sage holding an Imperial Weapon like the Green Lamp Buddha, he could also easily defeat him.

As the Extinguishing Tribulation Divine Dagger was suppressed by Li Hao and its power dispersed, this divine dagger seemed to sense the crisis and resisted violently, trying to kill Li Hao, emitting gray void laws.

But before Li Hao could exert force, 'Gongming' directly activated its sword domain. This sword domain was even more terrifying than before, enveloping the Extinguishing Tribulation Divine Dagger. As streaks of sword shadows washed over it, the tribulation light on the divine dagger was immediately extinguished.

Subsequently, under the dual suppression of Li Hao and 'Gongming', the Extinguishing Tribulation Divine Dagger erupted with unwilling struggle and trembling, but in the end, its light dissipated and the tribulation power drifted away.

Li Hao immediately let 'Gongming' absorb it.

Soon, the luster on the Extinguishing Tribulation Divine Dagger dissipated, becoming fragile, and it was directly smashed, turning into many fragments.

Li Hao could feel that within those fragments, the spiritual consciousness had disappeared, but there was still a trace of weak Imperial Weapon origin. Just like the Sage Dao could not be destroyed, although Dao Tribulation Imperial Weapons would be destroyed, they could not completely perish, only turning into countless fragments.

If fed by heaven and earth treasures again, it would shine with brilliance again, as well as a newborn spiritual consciousness.

Li Hao couldn't help but think, had 'Gongming' once been like this, destroyed and becoming nourishment for other Imperial Weapons?

As the Dao Tribulation power on the Extinguishing Tribulation Divine Dagger was absorbed, the momentum of 'Gongming' became even stronger. Li Hao fed the remaining heaven and earth treasures to it. When the last piece was fed, the sky where the tribulation cloud had dissipated earlier actually gathered dark clouds again.

Li Hao estimated that according to Old Man Feng's statement, the power provided by the Extinguishing Tribulation Divine Dagger to 'Gongming' was equivalent to more than 30 heaven and earth treasures.

And at this moment, as the tribulation clouds gathered, the people of the Stealing Heaven Holy Land who had just been shocked were stunned again.

"???"

They looked up, looking at all this blankly.

Three thunder tribulations in half a day?

When they saw that Imperial Sword rise into the sky again, they were all dumbfounded, realizing that an extraordinary great killing weapon had been born.

This time the thunder tribulation was even more ferocious, but 'Gongming' also erupted with an even more magnificent momentum, shuttling through the tribulation clouds, soaring sharply, slashing the tribulation clouds, and before long, it crossed the heavenly tribulation by its own power.

And the tribulation power also burned faint cracks on the sword body, but surrounded by Dao power, it quickly healed and was reborn, becoming even sharper and more terrifying.

In addition, perhaps because of absorbing the Extinguishing Tribulation Divine Dagger, the thunder and fire tribulation power coiling on 'Gongming' actually had a few points of the Extinguishing Tribulation Divine Dagger's momentum.

If it hadn't been named long ago, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it the Extinguishing Tribulation Divine Sword.

Li Hao gripped 'Gongming', feeling that Imperial majesty, as well as the joyful spiritual consciousness. He stared at the sword body, having a feeling of holding a sharp treasure sword, not daring to touch the sword edge easily.

This was an instinct. At this moment, 'Gongming' was enough to easily break his Dao Tribulation Imperial Weapon and could also easily pierce his flesh.

"Becoming a Sage through the flesh, but I haven't refined and opened up my own flesh Sage method. After the baptism of the Human Tribulation, my flesh is only at the level of a Dao Tribulation Imperial Weapon."

Li Hao's eyes flickered, immediately realizing that his flesh still had great potential for improvement.

Although the flesh had been cultivated to the final realm, the flesh Sage Dao still had the possibility of improvement. This improvement relied on tribulation power.

This power could destroy everything and could also protect everything; it was the origin power of heaven and earth.

"With this Imperial Weapon, even other old Three Calamities Sages will have to avoid your sharpness."

Feng Feng Bo Ping looked at the Imperial Sword in Li Hao's hand, joy and smiles appearing in his eyes.

Li Hao knew that although the Green Lamp Buddha and the Void Ancestor were ancient Three Calamities Sages, they were not the top ones among them, while Old Man Feng was referring to those guys who were second only to the Supreme Sages.

Li Hao communicated with 'Gongming's' spiritual consciousness, sensing its wonderful uses. Besides sharpness, 'Gongming' also developed a special ability, which was to chant the enemy's name, and it could trace its causal origin. No matter how far apart, it could lock onto it.

If the Green Lamp Buddha used the green lamp to escape again, he could lock onto him with 'Gongming'. This could also make up for his flaws in movement techniques; no matter where the enemy fled to the ends of the earth, he could track them.

"If it crosses more tribulations, calling out a name from millions of miles away, 'Gongming' can go and kill for me."

Li Hao's eyes flickered. In fact, the current 'Gongming' already had such ability. To deal with Three Calamities Sages who didn't have Dao Tribulation Imperial Weapons, Li Hao only needed to chant their names, and with their appearance and aura appearing in his mind, he could let 'Gongming' lock onto them and fly to kill them!

Such ability was simply terrifying.

As his strength went a step further, while Li Hao was happy, he also realized that he still needed to become stronger.

The Seeing Yuanzu mastered a Seventh Tribulation Imperial Weapon. Li Hao asked Old Man Feng, and the Huntian Sage also had a Sixth Tribulation Imperial Weapon that had been revealed.

'Gongming' was only at the Second Tribulation, yet it was so terrifying. The power of a Sixth Tribulation Imperial Weapon was beyond imagination. This was a gap that was difficult to bridge even with the Extreme Realm.

"If my other two Sages cross two tribulations, my flesh should be further strengthened!"

Li Hao's eyes flickered, thinking in his heart.

Others cross three tribulations, he has to cross nine.

But although tribulations bring destruction, they can also lead to rebirth through tribulations and become stronger!

However, before that, Li Hao intended to cultivate the Myriad Heavens Star Veins to the extreme first.

Now he had already cultivated more than a thousand Qi veins, but there seemed to be no end. Li Hao didn't believe that this path had no end. If he could truly correspond to the countless stars in the sky, that would be countless Qi veins. Just this path alone would be enough to walk to a degree that could be called invincible.

Li Hao was not in a hurry. The more Qi veins he could condense, the better. He hoped that this path had no end.

As the matter of the thunder tribulation passed, half a month later, no one in the holy land was discussing it anymore.

And Li Hao was also quietly condensing Qi veins in the small courtyard.

In this half month, his Qi veins had condensed to 1,100.

Just the power brought by the Qi veins was more than ten times that of the Heaven and Earth Veins Extreme Realm!

You must know that Qi veins can accommodate more power, exceeding the body's ordinary veins. In fact, the power he can condense instantly is nearly a hundred times that of the Heaven and Earth Veins!

This is the terror of the final realm, and it hasn't reached the end yet, unlike the Divine Blood, which has reached the finality of the Tongli.

On this day, he was condensing star Qi veins in the courtyard as usual, when someone came to visit.

The person who came to visit was an inner sect disciple of the holy land. Li Hao was puzzled. Usually, no one dared to come and disturb him outside his courtyard. Even Holy Sons like Lin Baichuan were warned by Old Man Feng not to disturb him rashly.

"What is your business?"

Li Hao stopped his cultivation and asked this inner sect disciple.

The other party's face was pale. Seeing Li Hao's Great Dao aura, he became even more trembling and knelt down to kowtow directly, saying:

"Sage, someone is looking for you, asked me to come and report, saying her name is Xiaoxiao, and she wants to meet you at Wu Ming Mountain outside the holy land."

Li Hao was slightly startled. Ying Xiaoxiao?

His expression changed slightly. Could it be about the God Race?

His thoughts turned, and he immediately understood. He did not punish this inner sect disciple. The other party was caught by Ying Xiaoxiao to pass the message. Ying Xiaoxiao's identity was sensitive, and she couldn't enter the Stealing Heaven Holy Land, or she would be sensed by Old Man Feng, so she could only find someone to pass the word.

He let this person retreat and stood up to find a crack in heaven and earth to step out.

He didn't go to the human world to pick up Emperor Da Yu and other old acquaintances to this place, also out of consideration that the God Race war would have a huge impact, planning to wait until the God Race matter subsided.

No one knew how much chaos that God Race ancestor would cause at that time.

Soon, Li Hao arrived at Wu Ming Mountain, not far outside the holy land.

Just after arriving here, Li Hao looked around and saw an aura revealed. Ying Xiaoxiao, dressed in green, floated to Li Hao like a fresh flower. She stared at Li Hao for a moment, then pursed her lips and smiled:

"Aren't you afraid that someone is using my name to lure you out and harm you?"

She had calculated the time in her heart. The inner sect disciple of the holy land who was caught by her to do the task, this trip to report, should have just arrived, but Li Hao appeared here, indicating that the other party didn't even hesitate...

Thinking of this, the smile in the depths of her eyes couldn't help but become much brighter, and the haze in her heart seemed to have dissipated a lot.

"Do many people know your name?"

Li Hao laughed.

Ying Xiaoxiao immediately knew Li Hao's meaning and snorted lightly: "Then what if I have malicious intent?"

Li Hao was helpless and said: "Let's get straight to the point. Are you looking for me because your God Race ancestor has been resurrected? It's quite fast."

Although Li Hao skipped her question, Ying Xiaoxiao was not angry, but felt a inexplicable joy in her heart. The other party seemed to trust her extremely, and she had indeed never intended to harm Li Hao.

However, thinking of the things the ancestor had explained before, the smile on her face gradually faded, and her brows furrowed slightly.

"The ancestor has indeed been resurrected and is preparing to go to war with the Seeing Yuanzu. Back then, when the ancestor was sealed, it was the Seeing Yuanzu who led the union of many Supreme Sages. Now, the ancestor intends to solve them one by one, but these Supreme Sages are not simple characters. Once the war starts, they will surely notice it quickly, and then they will enter a thunderous offensive, fighting quickly to seize the initiative..."

She said in a low voice. These words could be considered revealing the God Race's plans to Li Hao. If Li Hao betrayed them, it would be a not-so-small blow to the God Race, but if she didn't say it, she felt she couldn't open her mouth for the following words.

Li Hao was somewhat surprised that the other party revealed these things. After all, he was from that God General Mansion and knew how much influence such intelligence had on the war.

Am I that trustworthy?

He didn't speak, just quietly waiting for the other party's follow-up.

Ying Xiaoxiao continued: "The ancestor said, if the war starts, the Seeing Yuanzu will likely call upon other forces. Your performance is outstanding, and the Seeing Yuanzu will definitely woo you into his camp. As long as you strike at a critical moment and sneak attack the Seeing Yuanzu, if the matter is accomplished, the Extreme Dao power from the casualties of this war will all be given to you. I can swear by my Dao heart for this point, guaranteeing that what I say is true."

Speaking of this, she quickly swore by her Dao heart and looked at Li Hao seriously.

Li Hao was silent. Even if the other party didn't swear by her Dao heart, he believed what she said was true.

But this was only the other party's guarantee, not representing that the God Race ancestor would guarantee it.

After all, he was not familiar with that God Race ancestor.

"Is this the condition for wooing me? Is there anything else?"

Li Hao asked.

Assassinating the Seeing Yuanzu—how dangerous this move was, Li Hao didn't have half a grasp.

After all, just the power of the other party's incense God Realm was extremely terrifying.

Moreover, the various messages he currently knew, including what Old Man Feng said about the Seventh Tribulation Imperial Weapon, were all powers that the Seeing Yuanzu was already known for.

Then, were there any unknown trump cards?

Undoubtedly, there must be.

And extremely terrifying.

Ying Xiaoxiao saw Li Hao ask this, her cheeks suddenly flushed slightly. She turned her head and looked at the surrounding scenery casually before saying: "There is also incense. I will give you the incense of three Small Worlds, all under your rule and control."

"Anything else?"

Li Hao asked.

Ying Xiaoxiao glanced at him and lowered her head: "No more!"

Li Hao heard this, and a trace of disappointment appeared in his eyes. These were not enough to make him take such a big risk.

Whether it was incense or Extreme Dao power, he could accumulate them slowly.

When he reached the God Realm in his sacrifice to the Dao, he estimated that the incense and Extreme Dao power would naturally accumulate enough.

Moreover, when that time truly came, he could get whatever he wanted.

Therefore, giving him these things in advance was of little significance.

Li Hao had no interest in participating in this war between the God Race and the Seeing Yuanzu, but since it concerned the woman before him, Li Hao asked: "When the war starts, will you participate too?"

Ying Xiaoxiao saw the disappointment in Li Hao's eyes, as well as a bit of resistance, and felt a bit disappointed in her heart, but also felt a bit of inexplicable joy. In this case, Li Hao didn't have to take risks.

"Naturally, I have to. As a Goddess, I must charge to the front line."

Ying Xiaoxiao said.

Li Hao was silent and said: "I can't handle the assassination of the Seeing Yuanzu, but if you are in trouble, you can come to me. I will do my best to protect you, but only you alone." ===== CHAPTER 574 =====
